Additionally, maybe some sort of indicator on posts in the Home timeline to denote how they got there (i.e. Are you following this person? Did a hashtag inject this post into your timeline?) This idea somewhat exists already with labels on "[Username] boosted" content.
There have been times when I've wondered "how did this post show up?" and often requires some detective work to uncover the answer. More transparency would be helpful, especially in a non-algorithmic feed.

Hey did y'all know that I've been hard at work writing a technical book for No Starch Press that teaches journalists and researchers how to investigate hacked and leaked datasets? It's called Hacks, Leaks, and Revelations, and it will be published some time next year https://nostarch.com/hacks-leaks-and-revelations

We, #trans people, youth and adults, just wanna live. Oh, and thrive.
That's all.
We want human rights.
We want health care, decided by our doctors, not politicians.
We wanna pee, in peace.
It's simple.
If you find any of it problematic, you're the problem.

Cozy long sleeved shirts - layers of them! Heavy blankets in a slightly chilly room. Cookies that I only get at Yule. Sweet and creamy hot tea in big mugs.
Thanks for posting about this. The "little" joys really are the important things.

Major corporate virtual speaking talk today! So nervous and excited!
I’m doing it without slides, which I love. Just someone firing questions at me about how to be a better advocate to disabled people.
I made slides to store the resource links. After sound check I’ll pop them up somewhere and hashtag them #EverywhereAccessible - that’s my foundation’s hashtag.
#Zoom closed captions enabled should be the default for every 👏 meeting 👏. It should not matter who is hosting, or if it's a physical room setup issue. No one should have to request closed captioning at the start of a meeting. #DigitalAccessibility
